Rachel Funmilola Garton, otherwise known as Lola Rae, is the cover girl for this month’s issue of Genevieve Magazine.

Hard working, beautiful and extremely focused are just some of the words that describe Lola Rae. A true fashion girl at heart, she has a degree in fashion textiles and will wow you with her many style tips, shopping skills and DIY wig-making skills.

In this issue, Lola Rae reveals what drives her passion for Music and Fashion.

After a life changing statement from Simon Cowell – “I think you are really good” – she knew she was made to sing. Now even through the tragic loss of her father, she is determined to wear the crown of artist and fashion girl.

This issue also focuses on an exclusive shoot with Blogger babes Nifesimi Oluwole, Derin Odugbesan, and Angelca Obasi, who serve us some serious style inspiration.

I love Lola Rae but there’s something off about the cover. It’s very obvious the concept was inspired by Porter magazine’s Summer 2016 cover with Sienna Miller. Now this isn’t a bad thing cos no one owns a particular pose but the problem is the final product. She has wayyy better weaves than that so the hair could have been better. The dress could have been better as well. The colour is gorgeous on her and the makeup is on fleek. Overall it’s one of the better covers from them this year.
